Hey logan i made a hog like that took 12 hours to cook it , and the bottom inches was burnt just to get the top done

 

that is why after you shoot, them you hang them upside down in a tree, slit the throat, and skin them out......

i dont cook it whole.....takes too long and too much B.S......skin and gut it completely then break out your chain saw and use canola oil instead of bar oil and split it down each side as close to the back bone as possible then cut your front and rear quarters off and clean, wrap and freeze them or rap in foil and cook on the grille along with the ribs, start from the bottom and work up......its been a while so im probably a little slow now but me, my stepdad and my brother could shoot one and have it ready to cook in a little over an hour.......took about 200-250 pounds of charcoal in our cooker......

 

GAS? Pwewey!! Real BBQ requires buring some wood. And who invited the watermelon?

 

yeah we used to throw some hickory logs in the bottom of the charcoal so it would smoke but not flame.....

 

yea....gas is a no no....get that outta hear ya bottle babies. I'll have to take pictures the next time we do...I guess being from the south ya just take it for advantage everybody knows how to cook ribs...

yam dankies boiling ribs...BLASPHEMY!!!

 

Just be glad you guys have access to hardwood. We cant get it out west.

 

show us how its done Phillip !

 

Since it doesnt look like Phil is going to step up to the plate here - we had an early Fathers Days dinner for the dads. I just remembered this thread so i thought I better snap a couple of pics...







I think that was the first time Ive made ribs - they were fantastic...

 

AWESOME they look good doc

 

I used my Fluke meter and thermocouple to keep track of the BBQ temperature...
